Join the Weber County Library in book discussions, film screenings, and interactive events that will explore new themes each year. Home > Weber Reads > WEBER READS Community Reading Program With book discussions, displays, and interactive programs, explore where we’ve been, how different people have experienced our nation’s story, and reflect on our shared history, culture, and experience as Americans. All Weber Reads Events Weber Reads is funded in part by a generous donation from the Ralph Nye Charitable Foundation Weber Reads What is Weber Reads? The Weber Reads program was developed in 2008 with the goal of providing opportunities for community-wide reading, reflecting, and engagement in meaningful dialogue. The annual Weber Reads program provides opportunities for community-wide reading, reflecting, and engagement. Each year, texts or themes are selected that help illuminate experiences and beliefs while transcending group values to unite us as human beings. The American Library Association has three times chosen Weber Reads to receive its Community Reading Program “Best of Show” award. Weber Reads is funded in part by a generous donation from the Ralph Nye Charitable Foundation. Weber Reads is now in its 19th year. Sponsored jointly by the Weber County Commission and the Weber County Library System, Weber Reads encourages discovery, reflection, and engagement in meaningful dialogue around a yearly topic as we read books; listen to presentations; watch films; and, most importantly, talk and learn from one another. 2026 Theme: Liberty & Literature “...America was built on courage, on imagination, and an unbeatable determination to do the job at hand.” — Harry S. Truman Reading List Download the reading list Reading List (PDF) Teaching Resources List of online teaching resources Teaching Resources (PDF) About the 2026 Theme On July 4, 1776, the 2nd Continental Congress formally adopted the Declaration of Independence, thus severing ties with Great Britain and establishing a new nation, the United States of America. In the 250 years since then, our nation has endured intense disagreements and enjoyed profound moments of unity. This year, the library invites all to come together to reflect on the shared history that connects us. We will explore where we’ve been, how different people have experienced our nation’s story, and how those experiences continue to shape our community today. Through book discussions, displays, and interactive programs, the Weber Reads program will encourage respectful dialogue and reflection on our shared history, culture, and experience as Americans. All events are free and open to the public.
